The final deadline to submit your work to the international Portland Comedy Festival is approaching!

Please note that there is a fee to submit your work to the festival.

Portland Comedy Film Festival is an annual live celebration of comedy, showcasing films, series episodes, music videos, screenplays and more. The live event is held in Oregon, at the Clinton Street Theater, and promises to have tonnes on offer!

First held in 2017, the festival aims to showcase a huge range of talent, and has an active panel of almost 100 judges. They’re on the lookout for films which will contribute to their fun, fast-paced program of back-to-back comedy.

Awards categories include:

  • Best Animated Comedy Film
  • Best Comedy
  • Best Dark Comedy
  • Best Mockumentary
  • Best Romantic Comedy
  • Best Sketch Comedy Video

and way more! You can submit any film, so long as it’s funny. So whenever your film was produced, whether it has distribution or not, and whether it’s already publicly available online, you’re good to go.

For the full terms and conditions, and to submit your film, head on over to the Portland Comedy Film Festival FilmFreeway page.
